The book focuses on the historical and art-historical manuscripts made use of the Papal Curia and the Lateran from the sixth to the thirteenth century. The research covers three main areas: the delineation of the ways that, in the central Middle Ages, led to the establishment and development of a writing activity and conservation within the papal library, the systematic identification of specimens surviving manuscripts, witness of this activity, the analysis of the specimens themselves, conducted through different methodological approaches (historical, artistic, palaeography, codicological, philological, liturgical, etc.). It returns, in this way, a very significant aspect, and so far little explored as a whole, the history of medieval miniature, thanks also to the reunification, conducted in this work for the first time, to what survives of manuscript production, in particular Hind, linked to the Lateran and the Papal Curia.
